About the adventure

The horror has come, the ale is gone! No more booze! A devastating crisis has struck a humble village, as the local brewery has mysteriously ceased production, leaving the townsfolk in a state of despair. Without their beloved brew, chaos has started to take root, and the once lively village now feels like a shadow of itself. As newly minted adventurers, it’s up to you to uncover the truth behind this ale-related crisis. Why has the brewery gone silent, and what dark secrets are hidden behind its closed doors? The fate of the village rests on your shoulders as you work to solve the mystery and restore the flow of ale before the villagers fall into despair. Throughout this adventure, you’ll learn the essentials of Dungeons & Dragons, exploring, solving mysteries, navigating social situations, and engaging in combat. Will you save the village from ruin, or will the ale stay gone forever?

About me

Hi there! I'm Joe aka Phoenix! I'm a seasoned GM with many years of experience running all kinds of different TTRPGs! I'm very supportive of my fellow LGBTQ+ community. I enjoy crafting unique character driven stories where your silly ideas shape the world around you.

Character creation

Creating your character

Joe (Phoenix) will provide pre-made character sheets for you to choose from after you sign up or at the start of the game.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Players should have the following: - access to a webcam/mic - a Roll20 account (for accessing the game and VTT) - a discord account (for playing the game)

What Joe (Phoenix) brings to the table

I will provide all necessary links to play the game and all game material. Such as, the discord server, dndbeyond campaign, Map/VTT, and characters! I mainly focus on roleplay and story telling with a bit of puzzles and some combat to keep things spicy. I am a very rules light kind of GM I use the rules more like guidelines and just want people to come together and have a good time playing some dnd!
